Hey- I had to do *some* action, right?

I shot these on a section of desk in my office. I have a small space
cleared out right next to the window. Light can be a serious problem, so I
use everything available here:
2 swingarm lamps right next to the area:
1 has a 40-watt regular bulb
1 has a 15-watt fluorescent bulb
Overhead fluorescents
A halogen torchiere across the room
Natural light from outside
Despite all the other light sources, the natural light is still a critical
part of this. At night I can take passable shots... but not great ones. On
a nice day, I can get great shots without needing much more than the natural
light. This particular set I took on an overcast day- there was enough
filler light from outside, but I still needed everything else.
I'm trying to come up with a way to do this at home with only artificial
lighting and without sacrificing quality. I'd like to have all my Lego on
hand and to not have to depend on daylight.
